The UK government has recently announced a large-scale investment in the field of artificial intelligence (AI), with plans to increase publicly controlled AI computing power by 20 times by 2030. Prime Minister Keir Starmer stated that this plan to ‘unleash’ AI aims to make the UK a leader in the global AI industry. Despite public concerns about the potential impact of AI, the government believes that this technology could bring up to £470 billion in economic growth.

In the field of artificial intelligence, ByteDance is ramping up investments at an astonishing pace. According to the latest report from Zheshang Securities, ByteDance's capital expenditure on AI will reach 80 billion yuan in 2024, nearly equaling the total of the three giants Baidu, Alibaba, and Tencent. It is expected that by 2025, this figure will double to 160 billion yuan, with 90 billion yuan allocated for AI computing power and 70 billion yuan for data center infrastructure and networking equipment. This investment scale not only demonstrates ByteDance's ambition in the AI sector but also foretells a new development phase for China's AI industry.

Wenyuan Zhixing officially launched its new generation mass-produced Robotaxi — GXR on October 15. GXR draws on more than 1,800 days of public operation experience in the Robotaxi field, featuring L4 level public road driving capability, and can handle complex scenarios such as morning and evening rush hours, mixed traffic, and high-speed driving at night. The Wenyuan Zhixing GXR is equipped with comprehensive redundancy systems for architecture, F-O line control chassis, computing units, and braking, effectively avoiding single point failures. It also features the new HPC 2.0 high-performance computing platform.

Intel's Gaudi3 AI accelerator chip has found its first cloud computing customer in IBM Cloud, which plans to offer services to customers early next year to support artificial intelligence computing in hybrid and on-premises environments. IBM Cloud will integrate the Gaudi3 chip into its Watsonx AI and data platform to drive the development of new artificial intelligence capabilities. The integration of Gaudi3 with Xeon CPUs will provide cost-effective, secure, and innovative AI computing solutions. Despite facing competition from Nvidia, Intel...

The upcoming iPhone 17 series from Apple is expected to feature 12GB RAM to meet the memory demands of future AI large models. The current iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 series with 8GB RAM are insufficient for supporting large models with around 7 billion parameters. A model with 13 billion parameters requires at least 5GB of memory, and after the operating system and applications take up space, 8GB RAM fails to provide enough room. The 12GB RAM configuration could offer ample space for larger AI models.

NAVIAI 2.0, independently developed by the Zhejiang Humanoid Robot Innovation Center, is a humanoid robot that stands 1.65 meters tall, weighs 60 kilograms, boasts 41 degrees of freedom, and has an AI computing power of 275 Tops. It showcases exceptional performance and a highly anthropomorphic design, with the ability to execute smooth and natural movements. It can perform complex tasks such as giving speeches, making tea, and playing chess, demonstrating a very high level of anthropomorphic motion mapping execution ability. At the exhibition, it not only served as the host but also displayed its ability to quickly learn new movements and perform high-precision tasks in industrial settings.

NVIDIA's fourth quarter revenue and profit surged beyond analyst expectations, marking three consecutive quarters of record-breaking performance. Companies, industries, and nations worldwide are experiencing a surge in AI demand. The scale of data center infrastructure is expected to double within five years.
